German PoW Soldiers Items Recovered (LONE STAR STALAG Book by Michael Waters) [2004]

 Hello everyone !!

The oral histories, archival research, and archaeological data compiled by author Michael Waters and his team of researchers tells the story of 5,000 German soldiers held as prisoners of war in rural Texas during World War II.

Camp Hearne, located on the outskirts of Hearne, Texas, was one of the first and largest POW camps in the United States. Between 1943 and 1945 nearly 50,000 German prisoners, mostly from the German Afrika Korps lived and worked at seventy POW camps across Texas.

The story of Camp Hearne told in this excellent book offers the first in-depth look at one of these camps and includes an archaeological study of the treatment and conditions of the German prisoners.
